Dar Al-Handasah Consultants (Shair and Partners) will provide consultancy services, including engineering, design, project management, for both existing and new infrastructure projects led by Aramco.

This award extends a previous GESi framework agreement that Dar signed with Aramco in 2019 and builds on a historical relationship that dates to 1957, and that has been characterised by the delivery of projects across various sectors.

Commenting on the new framework agreement, Dar and Sidara’s Chairman and CEO Talal Shair said, “We are privileged to continue supporting Aramco in achieving its strategic objectives. We believe the new agreement validates and spotlights our contributions and provides us with an opportunity to continue to bring exceptional value to Aramco, leveraging the best of our expertise and capabilities, and that of all Sidara Companies.”

Dar has been in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia since 1957, delivering projects for clients, with seven offices across major cities in the Kingdom. The amendment, awarded in December 2023, provides for additional five years of general engineering and project management services – infrastructure (GESi) and can also be extended up to three additional years, as per the statement.
